Linus27 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 9 minutes ago, Baloney Balderdash said: You should run the 2 B1on pedals through a Boss LS-2 or similar so you'll achieve parallel effect signal patch blending capabilities, or global clean blend when on of the units is bypassed. It really does add an extra dimension to your tone, doesn't it? But without muddying things up. And yes, to me it sounds as great as any reverb effect, not 2nd grade quality. I do have some additional more lush reverb patches, an extremely lush reverb patch that is used for a pad effect with volume swell ins, using the build in expression pedal on my B1Xon assigned to input volume (though I suppose you could use the Slow effect for a similar automatic volume swells effect), and I I got a great bass wah pedal patch as well, but again that is utilizing the build in expression pedal, you might be able to use it by dialing in the resonance parameter, to make it envelope controlled instead. I'll have a look at the parameter settings later and post them. Thank you so much, I would so appreciate it. I am a big reverb fan being a fretless player so any you have would be amazing. The Wah patch sounds interesting as well. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulThePlug Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 (edited) @Baloney Balderdash... 2x A/B/Y... 1 to split and 1 to join? I'll have a look and think about that.. What's your take on the Expression Pedal On/Off Switch and Use or am i missing something? Wish it turned the 'Variable' OFF/ back to default, not the 'Effect' I'm alright with the sounds of the Amp/Can SIMs, I had a B1 Four and sold it to buy the older B1on for the 'Missing' Marshall Super Bass. Would you care-to-share your 'Trippy Reverse Delay' Patch? Mental!.. all this in a 'lil box at about the £30 mark... less if ya lucky!

You would need a pedal with mixing capabilities like the Boss LS-2 I suggested, for mixing the two parallel signal paths instead of just spitting them for it to work properly, the LS-2 would both spilt, mixing them at whatever ratio you see fit and recombine them all in one single standard Boss pedal sized pedal, and be buffered, avoiding potential impedance issues of simple passive signal splitting. The LS-2 basically being a foot switchable 2 channel/effects loops pedal size active mixer. Edited February 27 by Baloney Balderdash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus27 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 How are you guys powering your MS pedals? Are you using batteries, individual mains power supply or lead into a power pack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaythemusicguy Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 44 minutes ago, Linus27 said: How are you guys powering your MS pedals? Are you using batteries, individual mains power supply or lead into a power pack? My MS60B is on a pedalboard with an isolated power supply for the other 4 pedals. I have an MS50G for church guitar playing, which sometimes is on it's own with a single PSU, sometimes on a board with an 8 way unit. Found AAs get a little unreliable, never know when they will just cease! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always carry a spare pair of charged batteries and check the battery level before starting. The ones on a pedalboard - Vitoos ISO8 power supply. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus27 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 (edited) Can anyone help with a small issue I'm finding. I've been playing around with my MS-60B today and I've created a few patches but when I press the foot switch to turn the effect off, it's still present. So if I've got a chorus on and the red light is on, I press the foot switch, the red light goes out but the chorus is still on. Am I doing something wrong? Update: I've worked it out, sort off. If the patch has 3 effects, I can add a line select to turn it on and off. However, one of the patches has 4 effects so I cant add a line select. Any way to work around this?

Load the ms50g firmware in but with the bass effects and have up to 6 effects at once? (DSP permitting) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should switch the effect on and off - it does on all my MS pedals. Have you got two choruses in the patch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not two choruses but two delays and I think a reverb. I updated the firmware to the MS-50 as Luke suggested above to allow for more blocks but it won't let me add a line selector as it says the DSP is full.

Try switching the other effects off and checking that the chorus turns on and off, then switch the other effects on one by one and see what happens.

LukeFRC Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 or go to a blank patch and try that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
